Bundling of driver assistance systems

摘要

A method for calibrating a camera in a vehicle for use in a driver assistance system. The method is adapted for setting camera orientation and/or camera height parameter. An upright target is placed in the field of view of the camera at a first distance in front of the vehicle. Typically the first distance is zero - the target is placed touching the front bumper centered on the bumper using standard features on the vehicle such as the license plate or the car makers emblem. A first image is captured a first image of the upright target. The upright target is relocated at a second distance in front of the vehicle and a second image is captured of the upright target. Mapping may be performed between image coordinates of the first image to matching image coordinates of the second image.
